KAOUD Carpets & rugs

We have been Kaoud customers since the late 1960's when they were located in Milford, CT; and , then went to their new showroom in Wilton when it opened in the late 1980's. No words can adequately express the professionalism of this family owned company. They recently went "above and beyond" in helping us with an unusual situation with one of our Karastan rugs. We thank them so much for their assistance. Not only are the owners wonderful people to deal with; but also, their pick-up and delivery team is great, and the way they solved a carpet placement in my home recently was outstanding. Dealing with Kaoud is a genuine pleasure and we would highly recommend them. ***l and ******* *********** - 12/12/2017 

Kaoud (and Fred specifically) was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and excellent customer service, not to mention they did a great job cleaning our rug. I felt Fred went above and beyond, even sending us photo updates throughout the cleaning process. Our rug, which was very overdue for a cleaning, is noticeably more vibrant and softer. We felt very safe having our rug cleaned during the COVID crisis, Kaoud took extra precautions and still turned our rug around very quickly. Prices were in line with industry standard. Kaoud will be our go-to shop for oriental rug cleaning in the future and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone. - 6/02/2020 

Great selection, super helpful service! Very please with my beautiful rug! - 8/12/2019 

They are an amazing business. Fred , the owner is professional and prompt. He cleaned 5 of our carpets flawlessly and delivered right on time. They are a pleasure to deal with ! - 7/30/2021 

We had a wonderful experience with Kaoud Carpet when we downsized to a new house. Fred and his team were ultimate professionals, and Fred was especially adept at communicating regularly and clearly via email. They cleaned and repaired at least 8 Oriental carpets and all look wonderful. One was a multi-generational much used carpet that was worn and tired looking, and now looks beautiful. The work took some time, but Fred was very upfront about this at the beginning. The cost of delivery was built into the total cost which was paid upfront, and that plan served us well. We always knew the status of each carpet, thanks to Fred's emails. All in all, not only was their cleaning and repair excellent, but the combination of utter professionalism, yet informal, friendly, and communicative style informed our five star review. - 5/17/2021 

We purchased several oriental rugs 15 years ago from Kaoud and continue to be completely happy with their quality. When it was necessary to replace old carpeting in other areas, we visited several dealers but found there was nothing superior to Kaoud in both quality and service. Everything was done on time and in a thoroughly professional manner. Fred gave us a variety of options and suggestions that helped us make a decision without any pressure. The installers, George and Gus, were professional in their own right and did an excellent job, especially on hard to match corners. We could not be more satisfied. - 8/12/2019 

Fred was great to work with. He was responsive and his prices were fair. His staff did the best cleaning job we've ever had on our rugs, and he was able to fix two small rips in the welts for us. We had used another local service for cleaning before and were never satisfied with the results - Kaoud delivered and returned the rugs and did an exceptional job cleaning them. - 2/26/2021 

A precious resource for carpet lovers! Deep knowledge, superb service. I learn every time I go to Kaoud’s, and my home is more beautful thanks to them. - 4/28/2019 

It's rare now-a-days to get the quality of service and product that you receive from the Kaouds. As soon as you walk into the store, you receive quality service with a smile and most importantly, patience. They are very calm and quite professional. No pressure to buy either.
I just purchased wall-to-wall carpet for our family room. I assumed that they only sold orientals, but I was wrong. My friend had told me to go see what they had. She was also looking for broadloam for a staging job she was doing in Weston and was quite happy with what she found. I had purchased an oriental rug from them years ago and was quite happy then. So I decided to go there to see their selection. I was pleasantly surprised with their vast selection of sisals and jutes! I wanted a modern contemporary look and they had it all. Joanne Kaoud even offered to come to my home with a variety of samples. She came with an arm full of choices, with a big smile on her face, so I could see them in the room. We even had coffee together. Those little things mean a lot! I'm from Minneapolis and out East you don't always get the quality service that I received from the Kaouds. The carpet looks fabulous! Better that I ever expected! Plus with the scrap, Fred Kaoud suggested that they bind the edges and now I have an extra rug in the parlor!
You'll be happy that you used Kaouds! We are! - 6/28/2015 

Great service. Beautiful repair of an antique rug. Timely pickup and delivery, - 5/01/2024 

Great service and quality care. Thank you. - 2/20/2019 

All the people at Kaoud treat you like family and are very thankful for the business. They are honest and we've bought two very large oriental rugs from them. In addition, they are the people to go to when you need your rugs cleaned. My dog soiled ours and Kaoud was able to get the stain out even though it was weeks old. A miracle!! - 12/13/2020 

Kaoud Carpets and Rugs provided exceptional service regarding the cleaning and moth proofing of 16 of my heirloom Persian rugs--starting with the phone call I had with Fred Kaoud, Jr. Mr. Kaoud arrived at our home the very next day to personally inspect the carpets. He patiently explained the problems with each one, the process by which his firm cleans and moths proofs. He also provided a detailed account of each rug, its age and origin. Six weeks later the rugs returned home----now silky, exquisitely clean, the colors vibrant. They have never looked this good. His professional team brought the rugs in and expertly placed them around the house, explaining why some rugs should be placed in the same room with another rug, due to the common origin and related designs. Fred and his team were a delight to work with. We can't say enough about Kaoud Carpets and Rugs-For anyone who treasures their rugs as heirloom quality art, Kaoud is the only place to go. - 5/05/2019 

Joanne and the team at Kaoud were nothing but professional from start to finish! They restored and cut down a large Oriental rug that has been in my family for 3 generations. I’m thrilled with the outcome - you would never know it was altered and it is simply beautiful work. I would highly recommend working with them! - 5/03/2023 

My husband and I just moved to the area and needed to clean our lovely Persian rug that I inherited from my Armenian grandmother.
Fred Kaoud Jr. was very responsive to my inquiries and extremely knowledgeable. The Kaoud team carefully removed many years of dust and hand washed our precious heirloom. In addition, the installation team helped with sound recommendations on where to position the rug in our new home once it was cleaned. It looks stunning! What a wonderful way to feel at home in our new home! - 8/30/2021 

We found Fred and crew an excellent choice! They were knowledgeable, professional, and caring. The cleaned our Persian rugs, had them back when promised, and did a terrific job. The new rugs we purchased were also wonderful choices. We would highly recommend them to potential customers who wish services or products! - 4/27/2021 

Great selection, excellent service, and delivered promptly (on a holiday no less). We were very pleased with our Kaoud experience! - 9/08/2021 

Fantastic experience with Kaoud's! Worked with Fred Kaoud directly to repair and re-size a few extra Tibetan large rugs. Fred not only helped me personally but also recommended superior alternatives at a lower cost. What more could I ask for? All in all, fantastic professionalism, responsiveness, integrity, and quality work. Many thanks. - 1/19/2021 

Friendly, efficient, pleasant and excellent work. I would recommend them to anyone looking to care for their rugs. - 11/13/2019 

Knowledgeable, professional. Beautiful and huge selection to choose from. Above and beyond when it comes to customer service. - 12/30/2019 

Excellent service from choosing our carpet to installation. Fred is very helpful and knowledgeable and was a pleasure to work with. He was ready to work with us on whatever the price point. Installation was seamless as well. Very professional company, and as an interior designer, a great team to work with. - 8/01/2019 

Very professional and clearly and slowly explained the work done. I am coming back again. Nice people. Great job. - 11/04/2021 

Provided a quick quote. Arrived when scheduled and did a thorough job. Thrilled with the results and will use them again. - 3/04/2021 

Prompt and courteous service, work done well. - 6/12/2020 

Very attentive to customer needs. Quality cleaning for my oriental rugs. - 9/07/2021 

This was our first time visiting Kaoud Carpets & Rugs, and we will be returning there soon to make our next purchase. We were greeted as soon as we walked into the store. Joanne gave us the choice to browse on our own or , if we wanted help, to receive pressure-free advice. She was friendly and helpful and guided us to a few rugs that we liked a lot and fit our needs well. We were able to buy a rug quickly and efficiently and had it home that day. Later that day I was talking with my sister and learned that many of her friends have been shopping at Kaoud for years and keep returning to make new purchases. We made a fortuitous discovery. - 11/13/2022 

Fred Kaoud and Kaoud Carpets in Wilton gave excellent service. We originally purchased our living room and dining room carpets from them many years ago. This was the first time we sent the rugs out to be cleaned. Fred kept us informed via e-mail. They picked up and delivered our carpets, and refringed the 10x14 ft carpet. They had to do multiple extractions and included new pads. We had an old stain from dropping a green bean casserole on one rug many years ago and they did an excellent job of removing the stain. The two delivery men, Ben and Jose, did a wonderful job and were very professional. We appreciated that they wore masks. I would highly recommend Kaoud Carpets in Wilton. - 7/22/2020 

have used kaoud for years, my parents used them for years before that as well, and I couldn't happier. they do an incredible job and are so responsive to and emails. so easy to schedule a pick up and they do miracles with our carpets. couldn't recommend them more. - 1/18/2023 

Courteous, informative, efficient transaction. Shows the experience level Fred and his installer, Gus, possess. Having done a renovation that lasted over a year, Kaoud Carpet and Rugs was the most pleasant vendor to do business with. - 11/11/2019 

Kaoud did an amazing job on our rugs. The rugs were very soiled but Kaoud washed them repeatedly over several weeks and when they were returned they looked, and felt like they have never been used. There were no odors of any sort either. Just fresh clean rugs. Excellent service. - 8/29/2020
